Assistant Professor Dr. Shaimaa Safaa Al-Din Bahaa Al-Din, from the Department of Computer Engineering, Al-Nahrain University, has published a new scientific research paper entitled:

A Lightweight, GPU-Accelerated Batch Image Encryption Framework with Integrated ECC and Multi-Attack Resilience

The research was published in the international journal Engineering Science and Technology, an International Journal (Elsevier) in 2026. The study proposes a lightweight image-encryption framework accelerated using GPU computing, which combines chaotic encryption techniques with integrated Error Correction Codes (ECC) to enhance the security and reliability of image transmission over noisy communication networks. The proposed framework employs a 3-D logistic chaotic map for keystream generation, pixel-level permutation and diffusion operations, and RS/LDPC error-correction mechanisms, enabling secure and robust transmission of visual data.

The research was conducted in collaboration with Noor Baha Al-Din (Hasan Kalyoncu University, Türkiye) and Mahmut Aykaç (Gaziantep University, Türkiye), contributing to the advancement of secure multimedia transmission and cryptographic techniques for modern communication systems.

This research contributes to achieving Sustainable Development Goal 9 (Industry, Innovation and Infrastructure) by presenting an advanced technical framework that enhances the security and reliability of visual data transmission, and supports the development of resilient and secure digital infrastructures capable of addressing challenges such as noise and data loss in modern communication systems.
